Default Red Spotted newts or Chinese fire bellied?
Just wondering what do you guys prefer, not just to look at but overall keeping of them, general characteristics and habitat etc....

What would you prefer, a red spotted of fire bellied newt?

Notophthalmus viridescens
Cynops orientalis

Personally..I'd prefer a newt. no reason..I just like newts and salamanders more than toads.

Red spotteds! Thry're pretty much the same... Plus EVERYONE has fire bellies. Red spotteds are amazing.

i'd say red spotted, find their life cycle/colour change in the efts really interesting

red spotted newts, although if you get them as young red efts, they can be hard to feed due to tiny food items needed.
